PVD MOLD COATING'S
Providing PVD hard coating to your Mold or Dies will help reduce wear and damages as well as offer you corrosion resistant properties.
PVD & DLC increases the surface hardness between 65HRC - 125HRC & when measured in (HV) Hardness Vickers, ranges are from 2500-6000 (HV) as well. Coefficient of friction properties range from to 0.1 (CF) to 0.5
PVD & DLC will give the part a minimum of 300% more durability life. To add even more reliability to you part if combined with fine polishing it can & will give the part more a much higher increases in performance and reliability .

MOLD POLISHING
​
Aesthetically pleasing.
The shine of the surface you can receive when polishing your stainless-steel products is only half of the benefit you will notice. The abrasive procedure of polishing metal helps rid the surface of scratches, nicks, and more. The added benefit of buffing these surfaces means attaining that bright, reflective metal many companies are looking for in their finished product.
Increases durability.
Metal polishing acts as a protective sealant to metal surfaces, meaning it stops oxidation. This change means your metal surfaces are much less likely to wear or corrode. No matter if you use chemicals or other liquids, or your surface is exposed to resistance or friction, your metal will last a lot longer than untreated surfaces.
Easy to clean.
Half of the battle when it comes to maintaining your equipment is making it easy to clean and preserve. The level of a finish that polishing offers your surface means it is much less likely for contaminants to be left behind, and the polish continues to act as a buffer between the metal and any other outside force.
Whether you’re searching for polished metal for the automotive or the food and beverage industry, there are plenty of reasons to invest in a specific finish for your surfaces. Whether needing a 300/20000 grit polish to a specific RA, our polished stainless-steel transforms just another piece of metal to the protection you need.
